Evening of Roses

Miriam Makeba

Erev Shel Shoshanim

Erev shel shoshanim
Nitzeh na el habustan
Mor, besamim ulevana
L'raglech miftan

Laila yored le'at
Veru'ach shoshan noshvak,
Havah elchash lach shir balat
Zemer shel ahava

Shachar homa yonah,
Roshech ma'ale t'lalim
Pich el haboker shoshana
Ektefenu li

Laila yored le'at
Veru'ach shoshan noshvak,
Havah elchash lach shir balat
Zemer shel ahava

Evening of Roses

Evening of roses
Let's go out to the grove
Myrrh, spices, and incense
Are a carpet at your feet

Night descends slowly
And a breeze of roses stirs
Come, let's go out to the grove
My love

Dawn is already on the mountain
And the doves' cooing is heard
Open to the morning breeze, rose
I will pick it for myself

Night descends slowly
And a breeze of roses stirs
Come, let's go out to the grove
My love
